We finally in the water with a couple V8's

Hi !

Would it be possible to use a Latham style steering on the new V8's? With the 400R (which I have), you have to use the stock electrical power assisted steering. And its not precise enough in my opinion for high speed runs.

I consider to buy a 450/500R when the time comes

Cheeers, Toffen

So can those V8 beasts suck up 50 gallons per day under normal to fun driving?

Funny you should mention that. I clicked off about 40 miles and chewed up almost 60 gallons of premium.... LOL. Miserly they are not!

I can burn up 15 gallons in 45 minutes with just a 2.4. I know they can drink.

Mine would get 1.05mpg on my 30' Scarab from 35-50mph (3500-4600rpm). Any faster or slower, the mileage went down. At WOT, they got 0.85mpg. Idling was like 0.5mpg.
